Lamictal 100mg Side Effect: Itchy Skin Concerns?
I am on Lamictal 100mg since last November The last 2weeks been having itchy skin no rash could this be the begging of Steven Johnson syndrome
Cosmetologist
Answered on 4th Sept '24
Lamictal may cause itchy skin without any rash. Although rare, Stevens-Johnson syndrome is a concern. Fever, skin pain, and red or purple rash indicate SJS. If worried, talk to your doctor immediately. They'll determine if it's medication-related or not. Don't stop taking Lamictal before consulting your dermatologist.

I feel itching all over my body and the rashes disappear suddenly after few minutes and again appears after few hours
Female | 17
You may have a medical condition known as hives. They usually cause an itchy rash that comes and goes within a couple of minutes. They are sometimes caused by allergies, stress, or infections. Over-the-counter antihistamines and triggering agent avoidance, like certain foods or products, can help with the itching. If hives are still there or getting worse, a visit to dermatologist would be good.

I am 18 years old and I had to use minoxidil on my beard. I have baby hairs on my beard but they are not getting thick and are falling off.
Male | 18
It’s common for younger individuals using minoxidil to experience temporary shedding, as this can be part of the hair growth cycle. The fine hairs you notice may take time to become thicker. Ensuring proper usage and patient consistency can help with results. Additionally, maintaining a balanced diet and managing stress levels can positively influence hair health. If you continue to have concerns or notice significant changes, seeking advice from a dermatologist is recommended to rule out any underlying issues and to discuss tailored options for your situation.

Sir actually whenever my mother has fever and after recovery her upper body gets dry
Female | 61
Fever can cause dry skin, which is common after recovering. However, it shouldn't last too long. Make sure your mom stays well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water and applying a gentle moisturizer regularly to nourish her skin. If the dryness continues or worsens, visit a dermatologist and they can explore more solutions to address the issue effectively.

My face is burn from sun please give advice
Male | 32
Sunburn can happen when your skin gets too much sunlight. It may feel red, hot, and painful. To cool the sunburn, you can try putting cool cloths and aloe vera gel on your skin. Avoid sun exposure until your skin has healed. Drink plenty of water to help your skin recover faster. Always use sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun.

I need to know if a friend of mine have gynocomastia . He is a 17 year old boy and his nipple looks bigger for more than 4years.
Male | 17
Your friend might be the one with gynecomastia, which means swollen breast tissues in boys or men. It can be possible if the hormones are not in a proper balance during puberty. Usually, gynecomastia goes by itself, but sometimes, if it causes problems, it can be treated. Your friend should speak with a dermatologist to get more details and see if any treatment is necessary.

Hi doctor, I'm experiencing skin redness and severe itching. and it's really uncomfortable. Please let me know about regarding the cause and medications if any thanks
Male | 25
You’re dealing with a skin problem known as eczema. Eczema can make the skin red and extremely itchy because it’s inflamed. You should use mild skin care products regularly and moisturize often to help yourself. If you need relief, try using some over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream. Don’t scratch or it will get worse. In case these signs don’t go away or become worse, see a dermatologist for more help.

It seems to me that you have developed herpes zoster infection, but a dermatologist would judge better, so refer this page to find doctors - Dermatologists in India. If you find your diabetes interfering with or complicating your conditions then you can contact me anytime as well.

I am 27 years old female I have pimples on the face I have applied many cream and soaps which are not working fr my skin what to do naw? Can u suggest me cream and soap / face wash which is good. Fr daily use without side effects
Female | 27
I suggest a gentle, non-comedogenic cleanser such as a mild gel face wash containing salicylic acid which can help treat breakouts. Try out oil-free moisturizers for moisturizing. Let go of the use of harsh scrubs and put sunscreen on top of your list during the day. After trying the over-the-counter methods for two to three weeks and not getting any results, ask for suggestions from a dermatologist who can customize a solution.

Nido r Biofiber transplant
Male | 27
Nido and Biofibre are two types of alternative artificial hair transplantation procedures that can be used instead of traditional techniques. Nido incorporates the use of synthetic fibers that mimic natural hair, whereas Biofibre uses biocompatible artificial fibers to lower allergies. Both of these operations are less invasive than traditional hair transplants and can provide faster results, but there is a risk of infection or rejection by an organism. It is important to consult an expert dermatologist or hair transplant specialist in order to know the risks and benefits of these approaches for treating your peculiar case.

I'm 68 years old, I have rashesh
Male | 68
The rashes are an external factor of the skin and can appear as if they are caused by itchy skin or red-bumpy skin. They can be triggered by things like allergies, infections, or skin disorders. For the sake of cleanness, let your skin be clean and dry. Also, make use of mild moisturizers. If it's not getting any improvement, it's better to refer to a dermatologist.

Pimple in my private part
Female | 25
Most of the time, these boils are a consequence of the blockage of oil glands or the follicles of the hair. They are occasionally itchy or even painful. Be sure to keep the area clean and resist the temptation to pop the pimple. Also, wear pajamas that are loose-fitted and soaps that are gentle. It's still there or even worsening, you should consult a dermatologist.

Female | 46
Skin cancer is caused when skin cells grow in an abnormal way. The symptoms can include moles that are changing, new growths, or sores that don’t heal. The main reason is the sun. Treatment options include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. It's important to protect your skin from the sun and see a dermatologist for regular checkups.

I am 54 and have had a swollen, red, itchy, scaly skin leg from the knee to the toes. I’ve been to the doctor 3 times and they checked for a blood clot and ran tests. No clots. Tried 2 different antibiotics that were prescribed and no change. Icing doesn’t change. Elevation doesn’t change. Compression socks doesn’t change it either. Resting it doesn’t help either.
Male | 54
It seems that you have a resistant skin problem on your leg. The redness, swelling, itching and flakiness could indicate different illnesses such as dermatitis or eczema. After excluding blood clots and failure of antibiotics treatment, it might be helpful to have them checked more thoroughly by a dermatologist. They can suggest different kind of therapy which will be more efficient taking into account the exact nature of the disease.

I have to use cleanser water and which one is better for me I don’t know I’m sensitive skin
Female | 17
It is best to consult a dermatologist who can recommend a suitable cleanser for your skin type. A gentle, fragrance-free cleanser that is designed for sensitive skin, such as Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser, could be a good option. However, it is always best to seek professional advice to ensure the best care for your skin. They may ask other health conditions like regarding your gut health, other issues etc and accordingly prescribe.

I want to know the best skincare for a 27 year old lady with dry skin type. I am ready to use sunscreen, oil, peptides, supplements etc. I have been noticing fine lines around my eyes and blackheads near nose.
Female | 27
For fine lines around eyes: We first need to ascertain whether it is a static or a dynamic wrinkle. For static wrinkle, retinol-based creams or serums and polyhydroxy acids creams will do the job. And for Dynamic wrinkle, the only treatment option is Botulinum Toxin(BOTOX) Injections. Black heads, above creams will take care of the problem, if not then lasers might be required.
